FloorFiller Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 Aye Kate Nash in 2010 was shite so probably that for me too. Been quite lucky in never seeing many particularly awful acts (or been drunk enough to just shout my way through and enjoy them regardless).

The life of Pablo Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 Kanye Though, I was so excited to see him but it felt like when my mam told me that Santa Claus wasn't real. Just massive massive disappointment, even now I sigh about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trout Mask Replica Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 Obviously very subjective but I'd say Lilly Allen, sat through that in 2009 as The Specials were on next I think. Then again in 2014, headed to Pyramid for Elbow but due to the storm closing the stage for a bit everything was running about 40mins late so I sat through it again. Couldn't believe I'd managed to find myself there again watching the very act I'd wanted to avoid both times she appeared. That's my bloody luck. Utter shite.

Whole other story, albeit watch the thrones itself was a mediocre album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy Lawn Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 Dizzee in 2013 was a car crash. Played a load of unreleased stuff that ended up flopping when it did come out, loads of pointless guests, never seen anybody completely lose a crowd like that.

Chipbarm Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 The biggest load of plop I've ever seen was Azealia Banks on the Other stage, can't remember the year. Truly awful! I only went cos my mate wanted to see her and when she played that 212 song my mate decided to ring everyone on her phone so they could listen to it. What was the Fkin point?!

Memory Man Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 32 minutes ago, Sasperella said: PJ Harvey last year. One of our frinds was really keen so we all went along, although we stood midway back while he went running off to the front like the eager beaver he is. We all unanimously thought it was shite, a weird combination of boring and bizarre, and made worse because it was during that godawful sunday drizzle. We buggered off to Grimes at some point, but when he came to find us he admitted that he had also thought she was terrible. Oddly this was probably my favourite performance of 2017, up there with LCD and charlotte church all on the same night! I don't have many worst musical acts as i just go see what I know i'm gonna enjoy and don't go to what will most likely be not to my taste. There are sometimes some hillariously terrible comics on the cabaret stage now and again and some really odd performance acts in theatre and circus that you just don't "get" but then you move on to find something else and its invariably brilliant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dentalplan Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 Arctic Monkeys probably. Inexplicably 60% of the songs they played in 2007, so a lot of the awful Favourite Worst Nightmare. Shitty filter daubed over the screen and a brightly lit fog in front of them so you could barely see owt there either. Sounded pretty phoned in. Loads of twats in the crowd and then lord of the twats himself, Miles Kane, came along to close the set with what must be the most drab closer to a Pyramid headline set there has been. Mardy Bum on strings was pretty good and DIWK was a fierce opener but neither worth suffering the rest of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnomatic Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 Interesting with people saying theirs is Kanye - mine would be Pharrell Williams just before, which me and a couple of mates waited through thinking he might be okay, and I just thought he was absolute balls. Obviously it was very divisive, but I ended up really enjoying Kanye's set. Whether I would stand through another 75 minutes of Pharrell singing mostly other people's songs to see him again is debatable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only time I have watched three bands in a row on the pyramid, vaccines, dizzied and arctics. One of my fondest memories I have of Glastonbury and I don't particularly like dizzie or vaccines.

grumpyhack Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 Metallica 2014. They weren't that bad - just not for me. Went walkabout and came across a superb Bryan Ferry set that more than compensated. Possibly also Paul Simon 2011. Went back to our trailer tent for a mug of cocoa, which was far more exciting. By contrast Art Garfunkel did the set that Simon should have done in 2016. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought the bedwetter version of Mardy Bum they wheeled out was the shittest thing ever personally. Gets all nowty about playing it because he's "grown out of it" but knows people want to hear it so does an ill-advised STRINGZZZZ version instead. Either play it or don't. Was a boring gig though. Missed fucken Portishead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnomicide Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 It's a close fought thing between Lloyd Grossman & The New Forbidden and Lana Del Rey but I'll give it to Lana as there were only about 20 people at Lloyd and the lads.
